    Avoid a 3rd gen Tacoma (2016-2017), because of the recalls and numerous problems.

    Frame is what is most important to look at. Check for excessive rust.

    Just depends on your price range. 3rd gens have their problems, but a majority of those problems are minor in nature that a TSB can fix. Same goes for the 2nd gen. Rust was a huge factor for 2nd Gen as well... Definitely check out the frame before you buy.
